Change fact0rn explorer address from non-working one.
What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply swaps the default web address used to look up Fact0rn transactions in Stack Wallet. The old explorer (factexplorer.io) was reportedly not working, so the developer reverted to the official explorer.fact0rn.io. There is no code change that handles private keys, balances, or network connections differently. At most, users who click a transaction link may now land on a working website instead of a broken one.
No security action required. Treat as a routine configuration fix. If desired, verify that explorer.fact0rn.io is the vendor-endorsed explorer and consider allowing users to choose an alternative explorer in settings.
Security signals we found
Third-party block explorer change
Removed comment about mempool visibility on new explorer
No authentication, key handling, or transaction parsing changes
Evidence from the diff
The patch changes one string in lib/wallets/crypto_currency/coins/fact0rn.dart: the defaultBlockExplorer method now returns https://explorer.fact0rn.io/tx/$txid instead of https://factexplorer.io/tx/$txid. The previous inline comment noting that explorer.fact0rn.io ‘doesn’t show mempool transactions’ was removed. The method still only builds a URI for the main network and throws for any other network. No cryptographic, networking, or wallet logic is modified.
